OIL-BURNER.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known the t I, ALBERT CARROLL BUT-' LER, a citizen of the United States, residin at'Crandal], in the county of Kaufman and State of Texas. have invented a new and useful Oil-Burner, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to that class of burners'which are adapted especially for the consumption of fuel, such as crude oil; and among the objects of the invention are to simplify and improve the construction and operation of this class of devices.

With these and other ends in view, which will readily appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists in the improved construction and novel arrangement and combination of parts, which will be hereinafter fully described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.

In theaccompanying drawings, Figure l is a sectional elevation of an apparatus embodying the invention Fig.2 18 a sectional detail view. onan enlarged scale-of the burner.

Corres onding parts in both fighures. are indicate throughout by similar 0 ar'acters of reference. I

An air-tank 1 ofsuitable dimensions is provided, upon which is su iorted a framework 2, carrying a casing gl, wit in which is accommodated a spring or other motor, the main driving-shaft offlvhich has been shown at 4, said shaft carrying a pulley. 5, from which motion is transmitted by means of a belt 6 to a shaft 7 supported for rotation'in the framework 2 and carrying balance-wheels 8 and 9, the former of which'is engagedby the belt 6. The wheel 8 also has a wrist-pin 10,' connected by a pitman 11 with the iston-rod 12 of an air-compressor 13, the b0 y or cylinder of which carries a ide 1&1 for the piston-rod. The i c linder of t e air-compressor is connecte by a pipe 15 withthe lower end of the tank 1, within which air may thus be com pressed and-stored. w i

- Adjacent to the air-tank 1 is an oil tank or container 16, the upper end of which is con-' nected with the air-tank by means of'a'pipe 17, having a valve 18. Extending from the lower end of the oil-tank is a pipe 19, which is connectedwith and serves artially to support the burner-casing 20. The pipe 19 has a controlling-valve 21. The burner-casing 20 is cruciform; one of its laterallywxtending Specification of Letters Patent. I Application filed October-671905. Serial in. seiner.
